Adamantine Kama

Found only in meteorites and the rarest veins in magical areas, adamantine is an ultra-hard metal that adds to the quality of weapons and armor. Dwarves love to work with adamantine, fashioning it into sturdy armor and deadly, beautiful weapons.

Darksteel Kama

Darksteel is silvery in hue when polished or cut, but its exposed surfaces have a deep, gleaming purple luster. This alloy of meteoric iron and steel is tempered with rare, magical oils to give the metal its uncanny abilities. Darksteel is commonly used in the crafting of magic items related to storms or lightning.

Empty Fields

Weapons of this type may have come from a series of destroyed villages in southern Calimshan, though details of that destruction are hard to come by. There are suggestions that a pestilence infested the crops of a small barony during harvest, causing dementia in the citizens and turning them against each other. Whatever the reason, whole communities are thought to have erupted in chaos, leaving behind nothing but their bloodstained tools.

Hideo's Kama

There are very few examples of "known" peasant weapons, as most were adapted from farm implements in the absence of "real" martial blades, and by their nature are nondescript. There are exceptions, however, and from the defense of Kyo prefecture comes Hideo's Kama, created to bolster a group of farmers against marauding pirates. The farms survived, though Hideo himself, the architect of the plan, fell out of favor having spent his fortune on the effort.

Imaskari Kama

A palpable aura around this item marks it as tainted, perhaps rightly so, for all that is known of the Imaskari civilization points to a depth of depravity unmatched in modern times. Of course, such condemnation has had many years to fester, and while a goodly number of Imaskari may have been involved in necromantic studies, it is likely that their vilification springs from later societies elevating themselves through the slandering of others.

Mithral Kama

Mithral is a rare, silvery metal that is lighter than iron but just as hard. When worked like steel, it becomes a wonderful material from which to create armor and is occasionally used for other items as well. It is commonly used in elven armorsmithing, and elven suits of mithral armor are often enchanted.

Peasant Dynasty

Strange as it may seem, this item bears markings that identify it as the equivalent of a courtly dagger, though it is obviously adapted from a simple farming implement. The leader who sponsored the creation of this and similar weapons likely began life in the fields, which suggests a rise to power quite outside traditional bloodlines of royalty.

Thread of Life

Not everyone on the battlefield is eager for a fight. The devout of Aido Glade seek out conflicts solely to ply their healing skills, trying to ease the suffering of the fallen while avoiding harm themselves. A Thread of Life kama aids in their efforts while marking them as impartial to the cause of the skirmish. They do not judge, knowing that some wars are inevitable. They tend to those in need, regardless of circumstance.
